The Edwards Spectron 5000 is a helium leak detector designed for identifying and locating leaks in vacuum systems. It utilizes helium as a tracer gas to detect leaks with high sensitivity and precision.

Key Features:

• Detection Sensitivity: Capable of detecting leaks in the range of massive (9×10⁻² to 1×10⁻⁴ mbar·l/s), gross (9×10⁻¹ to 3×10⁻⁹ mbar·l/s), and fine (9×10⁻³ to 2×10⁻¹¹ mbar·l/s).
• Integrated Roughing Pump: Equipped with a built-in roughing pump that has a capacity of approximately 418.21 l/m (14.80 CFM), facilitating efficient system evacuation.
• Test Port Connection: Features a KF 40 test port connection for easy integration with various vacuum systems.
• User Interface: Includes an RS 232 interface for data communication and control, along with an audio alarm with variable pitch to alert users to detected leaks.
• Calibration: Comes with an internal calibrated leak for precise leak rate measurements.

Specifications:

• Electrical Requirements: Operates on 200-240 V, 50/60 Hz, single-phase power with a current draw of 11 A.
• Dimensions and Weight: Measures approximately 23 inches (width) x 29 inches (depth) x 48 inches (height) and weighs around 419 lbs (190 kg).

Applications:

The Spectron 5000 is suitable for various applications, including:

• Semiconductor Manufacturing: Ensuring the integrity of vacuum systems used in semiconductor fabrication.
• Research and Development: Detecting leaks in experimental setups requiring high vacuum conditions.
